WebHostingPad – Review – Think Twice…Better Yet Don’t Do It!

In January I set out to find a new web host and at that time actually entered into an agreement with WebHostingPad.com (I’m not even giving them the courtesy of a backlink).  I should have been wary and backed out of my agreement as soon as I discovered that their pre-sales “chat” representative had misrepresented [...]
